Hi there,I beleave that your master or slave cylinder sill have perished so are letting fluid get past them,or letting air into the system,try beeding from the slave system on the bellhousing if the peddle improves then you should replace both parts as it wont take long for the air to get back into the system,I wish you luck it is a easy fix to save the money.
